341  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin volatility here to stay? on: October 25, 2019, 09:46:38 AM
I don't understand why so many people complain about the volatility. It is one of the basic traits of Bitcoin. If you don't want to invest in a volatile asset, then there are huge number of other options such as bank fixed deposits, treasury bonds and bullion bars. So please don't complain if the prices go down by 10% or 15% in a day (I guess that the users have issues only when the prices go down).

BTW, in my opinion users should not get worried too much with the daily variations. Please look at the bigger picture. If you guys remember, the exchange rate was somewhere around $3,000 per coin a few months back. Even with the 10% decline that we had this week, the prices are still around 150% higher when compared to the previous level.

Still, there are almost all people who don't have much enough knowledge on it, what they know is that they wanted to gain always without embracing  the consequence of their investment that Bitcoin and other crypto is volatile, and you cannot win on it everyday, patience is always required on it.
If cards are played right, then any player can win the game. What I am trying to say is, volatility provides the chance to make money. Now it depend on the investor whether he is able to utilize this feature in his favor or ends up losing confidence in his holdings due to its fluctuating nature. Knowledge is the most essential tool for surviving in any field. Same holds true for digital market.
342  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is there any reason to day trade anything other than bitcoin? on: October 24, 2019, 01:34:18 PM
in my opinion there are several reasons to hold other than bitcoin. because I myself prefer to trade and hold more than one coin. but I disagree with your statement that says altcoind can have far greater benefits than bitcoin in the long run. I think holding Altcoin with a long-term strategy is actually more risky than holding Bitcoin. I would suggest to trade altcoin by trading daily. because I myself have experienced losses when I have altcoin and have a strategy to hold for a long time. I hope with altcoin that I hold can rise to the first price of the coin appears, it turns out that expectations do not match reality.
for me trading altcoin is faster to get profits, because in my opinion the tide of the altcoin market price tends to be greater, and such conditions can be utilized to trade. and in the case of trading do not just rely on one coin if indeed we can still take advantage with other coins.
Altcoins are much better for day trade indeed especially the coins that have a high volatility rate and on the other hand, bitcoin is much better used for long term investment. Way back 2017 daily trade is really the deal, you can definitely obtain a big profit but for now, it seems daily trade is not an option probaly there are still some altcoins who manage to fluctuate in a small amount of time which is perfect for this kind of trading strategy.
The fundamental principle of day trading is to make money with those coins that fluctuate easily and that too on daily basis so that you can make money quickly. As far as bitcoin is concerned, it is the most expensive coin and has never been observed fluctuating significantly on daily basis. Therefore it is suggested to do trading with altcoins.
343  Economy / Economics / Re: Can you share Bitcoin percentage in your portfolio? on: October 24, 2019, 10:50:35 AM
I have currently around 60% worth of Btc good to survive for 5 years avoiding market pressures to stay Hodl. The rest are alcoins XRP, DGB, XLM large supply low inflationary coins which I believe will survive in the following years.
Keep buying more and more bitcoin because in the coming five years, bitcoin will become some rare commodity and people would be fighting for bitcoin. Your portfolio is definitely worth holding since the increase in values of bitcoin helps altcoins to increase as well. Just stay uninfluenced by the fake news of crypto scammers.
344  Economy / Economics / Re: Taxless society idea on: October 24, 2019, 10:10:26 AM
I think that everyone deep down understands the importance of taxes for the country, but he will always resist this, because there are a lot of points why I like taxes to many people.  It can be either small salaries, or maybe too much taxes.  Someone can be very greedy and therefore taxes are indignant.  But we must understand that the state exists not only thanks to state enterprises, but also due to taxes, through which there are social guarantees in the country, there are various structures, including medicine, the police, and security.  Any utilities also depend on taxpayers.  Therefore, before expressing our dissatisfaction with taxes, we can think about the real existence of our country.

Here in our country, we do have some salary bracket in paying taxes, those who are earning minimum salary are not required to pay income taxes, and many more, the bad thing is that seems like those who are earning higher don't have much take out money since they are oblige to pay high tax, so for me, it is not fair at all. Still, in the end we need to pay taxes for the benefit of the whole nation.

For me, it's fair because we have a minimum salary wage, and if you are in the minimum wage and paying almost the same amount of income taxes to those ppl that have above that minimum salary grade ( 20k up), it's quite an unfair right. The government conducts the study and the reason why those ppl are not required to pay some income taxes anymore because the minimum salary wage that there are earning is just sufficient to there daily bills/ cost of living. Take note that your salary wage is depending on what salary grade you are, and also, we have provincial rates and national rates. Smiley
Taxes are good for common people as far as that money gets utilized for facilitating them with education, health and shelter stuff but what for those country where government does not spend the taxation money for the betterment of public. This is one of the reason why I am in favor of bitcoin because that way no one can really control my money and I do not have to pay any tax because no one really knows how much of it I have. Anonymity.
Same reason actually I have for supporting the concept of tax free society because there are majority of the countries where rich people don’t pay due taxes and the whole burden falls on the shoulders of job holders who are already making both ends meet hardly. They still pay taxes which are then not used on them or for them. So it’s better to boycott taxes. 
I guess this is the time when working class shall hold government accountable for all the useless taxes that are imposed on them and are not even used for their welfare. I am happy that crypto currencies are decentralized and governments are unable to put taxes on them. Bitcoin is setting people free from this headache so soon whole world be supporting it.
345  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 5 Reasons why I am buying Bitcoin!! on: October 24, 2019, 05:24:49 AM
This is my top 5 reasons why I am buying bitcoin:
1. Because it is decentralized and I can do whatever I want.
2. Bitcoin for me is still undervalued and I am confident that this current price will be multiplied in the future.
3. Bitcoin is easier and less hassle than scam banks and other financial forms.
4. Bitcoin as a decentralized form cannot be controlled by the banks and the governments.
5. Bitcoin supply is fixed unlike the unlimited paper fiat money generated by banks and governments.

These are some good reasons right here. We have to be careful though because bitcoin poses a direct threat to the big institutions and world governments. The governments need to have control and visibility. Thats why there is a chance if it being killed. There is a secret war on bitcoin and Crypto currency. As I mention this I realize that I have been itching to write my next article titled "The secret war against Bitcoin" where I expose all thats discretely going on.
Of course, bitcoin is a matter of interest for all governments because they also want to gain maximum profit from bitcoin and all other related crypto currencies. They are interested in controlling bitcoin and then controlling people. Well you shall right down such article that is going to help majority of people about the future of bitcoin.
346  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic situation around the world and Bitcoin on: October 24, 2019, 02:06:02 AM
When year 2020 we see the line up of people by the grocery store...

They all waiting for btc Transaction confirmations to buy Milk.... Lol 😀😀😀
maybe all that can happen with the development of the era and technology and cryptocurrencies are created to meet the development of technology and the economy especially if the crypto currency has been legalized by the government as a currency that applies throughout the world of legality is something that is needed in the development of these currencies
Those who believe in the beneficial nature of crypto currencies are still using it without taking consent of governments and those states whose governments are sincere with the development of technology have already legalized cryptos for them. I believe that if all people start using bitcoin, government will give in to legalization.

I guess he already read the news about someone who can win a lot of money from dice using the secret method, so he decided to take a loan. Even if that is to pay something, it is not worth to use the money from a loan to play gambling. It is better to use the money to pay something directly, so we don't have to think or regret it because of losing it in the gambling place.
If that's really the reason (believing there is secret method to win in dice) it's mean he already falling to their trap.

The worst is your loss will have domino effect, you not only loss in gambling but also your relationship with the people around you might also be affected. If you fail to pay what you owed can create serious problems not unless if you have the means to pay for it.
Not only their relationship, but about both of their family would get affected too. While his friend wanna use that money later but OP can't pay him on the time since he already lost it and still trying to get it back whatever the way. Lent $1600 to people isn't very easy to get, it seem OP' s friend has really trust OP.
This is the reason why I am highly against gambling. No doubt the experience of having some money for free and that too while you are enjoying some game, is sweet and tempting. But there are only few times when a gambler comes across such winnings in his whole life. Loss of money causes depression and desperation. People eventually lose control over themselves. It is best to stay away from gambling.
348  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What makes you still join the bounty campaigns? on: October 23, 2019, 11:20:08 AM
My own fact about bounties in 2019 is that lazy people won't make a dime from airdrop or bounties because scam projects are every where nowadays, to be able to make money now you have to work very hard by joining many airdrops and bounties, surely one or two will turn out with positive result
But don't you think that 1 - 2 campaigns won't pay you enough. Those campaigns might not worth your time spent on. Imagine spending hours and hours but in the end you get only small amount. Yeah! Lazy people won't make money now or never. If they do then it's still by some luck.
Would not it be much better if we stop looking for bounty programs and start consuming that time in something more useful and profit promising like investing in bitcoin or ethereum. At least, we cannot doubt them with potential. If someone is really serious about making money in digital world, he should go for the best options and put some real efforts in making money through good coins.
349  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 3 things should not be too in trading on: October 23, 2019, 10:02:52 AM
Trade too much



The trading volume is too large



Know too many methods



1. it depend on situation , sometimes, market movements can change suddenly. u know like some whales make a pump scenario to coins wich low volume, and posiblity we can take some profit from that if we can follow the whale's movements.

2. well, this might have a point

3. totaly agree about this one, sometimes, when u lose , u will think using another method , but with market conditions that are still the same , it doesn't help much.because basically you have used the wrong method when you first take action trading.it actually makes you seem inconsistent.
I also think that whether to trade or not highly depends on the situation. Not only this, if someone has good day trading skills and can make even little profits on daily basis he should go for it. During the peaks of dumps and pumps, trading volume should always be as large as possible. For the last one, I think it would be enough to say that the more you know, the better you will survive.
350  Economy / Economics / Re: China cracking down on bitcoin again on: October 23, 2019, 08:55:00 AM
If I am not wrong that I want to say boldly that China is really afraid of bitcoin as a threat of their country's economy, It may be a new happening between Binance and Alipay, Of course, Alipay needs to follow the rule of China government because they have a good reputation within this country, not only that but also some blame should go to the Bitcoin platform because it's still a very volatile platform, how a government take risk for their people to get engaged in this system, but the Chinese people are really doing a vast portion within cryptocurrency platform, but China is very strick to use Bitcoin and Altcoin to their territory but at the beginning of cryptocurrency invention, China was not as like today. how things can change?
I hold same opinion in this matter. It is not like China hates bitcoin or considers it as some useless innovation in the field of technology. It is actually exact opposite. China admires bitcoin and there had been times when it tried to control this but then realized that no one can really control it and in the digital market, the coin that has most investors is the key to control it. China wants to take control from bitcoin.

Gambling with borrowed money, worst thing you can do. You are playing with scared money and start chasing a small loss with high risk.

I did that also a few years ago, gladly with just $100 so losing that wasn't that hard to repay but I discover you play completely different. Just play with the money you could lose otherwise you will be in trouble.


I will always suggest that gambling with borrowed money is something very bad, if a person do not have money for gambling and after that he borrow money and lost it in gambling then just think what will he return to the owner of the money, means that he will be in complete trouble and after that nobody will lend money to him just because nobody will trust him after that.
352  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are your most common superstitions? on: October 23, 2019, 08:06:24 AM
We all have our own superstition, it will not do harm if we have one from all our actions, it is part of our belief that powerful hands are behind  on all the things that we do, these superstitions sometimes has an impact on the mind of the believer, mine is a mantra I will always believe that I will win and sometimes wearing a specific color can help its part of our lives and these superstitions have been to us from generation.
Isn’t it a little bit ridiculous that in this modern era we all still living with many superstitions?
But what should we do, I think it is something that comes to our behaviour from generation to generation like relating a specific colour to our winning. Well I think all these winnings and failures are a part of our lives and sometimes it depend on luck and sometimes on hard-work but relating it with some superstitions does not make sense.
353  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which betting type gives you the most payout? on: October 23, 2019, 02:35:12 AM
Interesting OP, I love sport betting but don't really know about these types. Will definitely go through them.
Since the payout are good, I just hope they are not too tedious or hard to win cause I have come to notice that some sport which has good payout tends to be tedious, thus winning many not come easily. Noticed this alot in soccer, when the odds are good with many player, winning becomes hard.
I only do straight bet with lower odds, but the rest I don't do it or I do but I'm not familiar in their types or terms. Sometimes I just bet whenever I want or feel that they have chance to win not considering what type it is just merely the record of their wins. But it's good to know those other methods exist.
At some point our instincts tells us where to bet and sometimes it’s also correct so basically even which types you chooses still Luck will bring you the fortune you need


But the most pay out I’ve got is from Parlay though that time is my first time to try because a friend teaches me how to make bet on that type and I won,but the following days i losses so I go back to straight betting again the way I use mostly
Well, it is good to hear that you at least returned back to your normal way of playing. Honestly, nothing can really help you in a game which is just about luck. Gambling highly depends on fate. Even if you learn thousand tricks, you can never master knowing fate. So it is better to drop the idea of making money or rewards from such activities. It is not about skills or gaining knowledge, only luck.
354  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will crypto really go to zero? on: October 22, 2019, 05:36:23 PM
can you give a link to the vital statement that crypto returns to zero
must with that all crypto will never be zero. blockchain is a new technology that allows people to send money easily, cheaply and quickly, transparently and the world banks have implemented a blockchain system. so I think crypto will continue to grow rapidly.
If it was possible or there was even a bit of reality in it, then we would have already lost bitcoin and the good altcoins long ago. There have been times in the past when these digital currencies really went through hard times and were thought to disappear but nothing happened to them at all. Actually, they became more famous with the passage of time and the number of investors has also increased.
355  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Beginner Trader on: October 22, 2019, 03:25:33 PM


Binance is widely believed by traders even has a lot of positive feedback about Binance, traders feel comfortable when in Binance exchange because with lots of coins and altcoin, you as a newbie can also trade here and know that you need to be mentally trading and have your own analysis.

For most traders, they prefer Binance as it has been a good way to start trading at, there are lots of tutorials in trading too, they have their Binance academy to help new users to learn trading, they also conducting seminars all over the world, here in our country, I already attended seminars at Binance, they teach from the basic to difficult one.
That is the main reason why a lot of people are still using Binance despite there is already a lot of options for them to trade. Binance do not only offers a trading platform for buying and selling cryptocurrency but they also offer some value which they really care about their customer and they are giving free content and education to its users to better themselves in terms of trading.
Other than that, Binance is one of the oldest trading platform with many users and it also provides a good variety of coins to trade in. The trading material provided by them indeed relies or real analysis and fluctuations of market. Besides they have data from a huge number of traders so can provide best solutions and strategies. However, success still depends on the choice of coin and skills of individuals.
356  Economy / Economics / Re: Big risk ,big results. on: October 22, 2019, 02:10:13 AM
A guy bought a very big house, which triggered an argument on a telegram group.
some people were arguing on a telegram group that they guy couldn't have bought the house with only trading profit....some insinuated that he must be into other businesses.
I laughed at their ignorance.
Why? Because I know that even in this present market condition that some skilled traders are making a killing.
I'm not talking about traders who trade with small capital here.
The conclusion is that when you trade with massive capital ,you earn massively.
This guy is lucky he bought a whole house just from the trade. Perhaps he bought Bitcoin for a large amount, when it cost about $100, and sold at the price peak about $20K. I'm happy for this guy. His success proves that the one who believes in the dream, strives for its realization-gets it. But also his example can become a reason for the fact that some people will invest a lot of money in expensive Bitcoin. The result may be the opposite. 

I think that is not the case, based on my understanding on OP's story a guy bought a very big house during the bear market that makes the telegram members very curious about how that guy spend so much money when their own portfolio is down. The guy must have done a short-term trading using his huge capital which led him to gain a big profit even the market condition is bad.
Trading has been the best way of making money since the human race came to existence. Buy low, sell high a potential asset can make us rich within days. There are many people who have improved their financial status with the help of bitcoin trading and looks like Ops is among those lucky ones. If someone is really serious about his money, he must go with bitcoin trading, whether day, short or long term, each one produces profits ultimately.

Borrowed $1600 from my friend. Apart from this placed gold as collateral and got $250. Altogether with hope of returning the borrowed amount and taking the gold back started to play dice after a long. At the beginning it went good, and when my profit reached $200 started to fail. Once I began to loss I was out of my control. Within minutes everything went out of my control, my mind didn't had the ability to think. I just doubled the bets consecutively. Ended with a loss. Now I was in a situation to repay my friend the borrowed amount. Please don't borrow and spend on gambling, it might give an earning, but that mostly leads to suffering. Cry
That’s a big amount as borrowed just to risk and spend in gambling you should have considered breaking it into two parts so the other one will be used for gambling and the other part for something useful

I never did something like that before even when I am still addicted in gambling though I did sold many of my personal things even my motorcycle just to have sustained my gambling addiction but I never borrowed from someone because I know I have no sure means to payback

That is why I consider that double jeopardy, if you only used your money you have yourself to worry about, but now you are going to lose a friend and you might have an enemy out of it, because no one wants to lend to a gambler because, there's no guaranty or time frame for payment, but anyway good luck.
Yeah it is a very sad moment that a person lost his good friend only because of money and I just wonder that his friend was so good that he lend him such a big amount of money, I think he should not gamble with all that money (may he gamble with half) because I am now thinking that how he will manage the money to return his friend on the exact date otherwise his friend will increase interest and he will get into the trap of borrow more and more.

Hello Everyone,
I wanna create my own business and one of my colleague told me I can create my own crypto and make it tradable (it can help for fundraising).
Do you know if it's possible ? How Can I do it ? Anyone has a useful tutoriel for this ?
Thank you !



good planning for the future ... but to make a crypto currency is not easy and about this requires knowledge and a qualified experience to be able to achieve what we expect .. because those who already have knowledge are not necessarily able to succeed in launching altcoin. Moreover, those who don't have knowledge ... so please learn about making altcoin using one of the available platforms ... after that you can continue to trade ... and prepare everything you need
Instead of putting oneself into all this, it would be much better to invest in the digital coin that has proved to be best among crypto currencies. New tokens or coins are not trusted by people very easily. Moreover, it needs a big team and a big investment. It is also not an easy task to grab investors especially when there are so many scams around. Why putting so much burden on oneself when one can become rich by a lot less work. Invest in bitcoin.

sports betting has no house edge

The house gains whoever wins usually because the odds have enough space between them that there is a profit in the spread between each bet.   If the chances of each side winning are equal then I doubt it'll list 50% either side, it will have at least a small percentage for the house to win from each bet placed.   Thats the money received for listing and handling the settlement of the game so quite normal.

It make sense. Because no house would actually held or contest a game without taking a small profit out of it. Else it will go bankrupt and the house will lose everything just to maintain the cost and website running.
Business exist for one reason only and that is profit. That makes sense too and it is fair. All of us want to make money. House do the same. As the saying goes all the glitters are not gold, similarly all the tempting games and offers we come across in this world are mostly just a way to take something away from us. It is all about money and one should not go careless when dealing with his assets.
360  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Invest in bitcoin casino bankroll on: October 21, 2019, 02:42:44 AM
well there are some sites like yolodice where you can invest crypto. Many emerging casinos are being opened everyday and you need to keep a look on them to not miss out investing opportunities Wink Because investing in casinos is one of the best investments as you are investing in the house edge!

investment business like this can only come and go or only a first come first serve basis and the late joiners can hardly expect less rewards. i heard that yolodice have close thier investment feature but i also heard that other gambling sites (forgot the name tho ) are now  opening a new feature  which is investment.   

there are still pioneers when it comes to this business like for example bitvest.io , which is still standing still.
As an investor theres no such thing about first come first service basis or even late joiners would equally able to receive the same percentage of profits with the house.

The only thing differs here is that they do have limited spots and lucky if you do able to get in too early before they do had a cut-off.Investment with the
house is ideal but dont expect too much on returns because it wont really be similar on what you had anticipated.
Instead of investing precious assets like bitcoin and ethereum in such projects, it would be much better to choose a good renowned trading platform and start this profession. The best way to make money and become rich is trading and if someone is doing it with the most precious and volatile crypto currency he will improve his financial standard far earlier than his expectations.
